Siegfried,

<http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR>.  Thanks.

It does sound like you do need to put "C:\cygwin\bin" in your Windows
PATH, and make sure it gets propagated to Emacs.  Alternatively, you could
try to get Emacs to run "bash -l" as its shell (don't ask me how, I don't
use Emacs).
	Igor
